CAUSE AND EFFECT
ANTI-AGGRESSION PACT. “The projected anti-aggression pact is not aimed at any other country,” says the “Daily Telegraph” (London). “It does not, for example, aim at the encirclement of Germany; but only at the enieirclement of an aggressor. It is an effect, not a cause, of aggression: All the countries bordering on Germany have been made anxious and fearful. As both the Prime Minister and Lord Halifax insisted, if Germany has no aggressive purpose, Europe will be much relieved; but it is hardly to be expected that the alarms which have sprung from recent events will be readily allayed. If, as Mr Churchill ironically remarked, Germany fears attack from, say, Belgium or Denmark, she can, by joining the nonaggression league, demand and receive protection.”
